Švabľovka Forest Park is a popular recreation area on the southern edge of Sabinov. It lies between the Spiš-Šariš Intermontane and the Bachureň Mountains and can be reached easily on foot from the town centre.
The place is also known for the sulphur mineral spring of Švabľovka. Small baths already existed near the spring at the end of the 15th century and the water was used especially for rheumatic and skin conditions.
